A police search was sparked in north Shropshire after clothes were discovered in a phone box beside a county beauty spot.

Police discovered the clothing close to The Mere, in Ellesmere, at about 10pm yesterday. A search of the water's edge was inconclusive and a police helicopter was also deployed.

Inspector Simon Lewis, of Shropshire police, said today: "We are going to carry on a further search today."
